We are so excited to introduce you to June's Mompreneur of the Month, Ashley Gammon! Ashley owns BeYoutiful Within, and is a postnatal fitness expert and MuTu Pro™ who focuses on helping women recover from pregnancy and childbirth so they can feel good about themselves and have the energy and strength they need to take care of their new little ones. You may have seen her around town, working with women at Nature's Playhouse, Ohana Fitness & Wellness, and Rochester Updog Yoga, as well as with chiropractic offices in Rochester, Macomb and Sterling Heights. She also makes private home visits, and, with MuTu being an online program, serves as a face-to-face resource for answering questions, offering adjustments and keeping clients motivated.
Becoming a mother herself was what motivated Ashley to start her business. 3 C-sections brought about diastasis recti, and she tried many methods for healing her body: physical therapy, yoga, pilates, and more. At the time, she was already in school to become a personal trainer, and thought she could get it figured out. She couldn't, until she she found MuTu Pro™ and it changed her life.
Ashley tells us, "Through my own journey with my postpartum body not functioning right, I fell in love with this very important, yet often ignored area in women's health. I saw that there was a huge gap in women's health when dealing with our postpartum bodies. Our bodies are amazing and can grow humans! Which means that it should function right for us after and we should feel good in our bodies after baby! Too many women suffer symptoms of a weak core and pelvic floor after delivery and don't get the education and resources they need to know how to correct it! This is my calling and I'm so passionate about helping women feel strong and good in their skin, especially after baby! We all deserve that!”
A military spouse who has moved often -- living in North Carolina, traveling back and forth from Germany to Michigan -- Ashley knows the importance of staying strong and healthy for all that life throws at you. She loves hiking, working out and water activities. She is also in love with being a mom to her three girls, 8-year-old McKinley, 7-year-old Madison, and 4-year-old Monroe. Her enthusiasm for her work and her capabilities shine through in the results she brings to her clients. If you are looking to regain strength and fall back in love with your amazing postpartum self, you can reach Ashley on her website, via email at Ashley.beyoutifulwithin@gmail.com, or by signing up for one of her local classes.
